Professor Henri Stahl is one of Eastern Europe's leading
authorities on peasant societies. For over thirty years he has
studied peasant village communities in Romania, both in the field
and from wide-ranging documentary sources. This book, one of
Professor Stahl's major works, is based on this extensive research.
The book is a study of the evolution of Romanian peasant society
from the thirteenth century to the present, focusing particularly
on the village communities of Wallachia and Moldavia, in which
until quite recently communal villages still existed. Through a
comparison of this type of village firstly with villages whose
population was subjected to serfdom, and secondly with those which
were free, but with private rather than communal property.
Professor Stahl offers an interpretation of Romanian agrarian
history. He argues that Romania moved from a communal form of
social organization to a kind of tardy feudalism, provoked by the
entry of capitalist market forces.
